A SHORT BIO
I'm hoping to retire in ten years - I messed around until my 40's so now
I'm having to make up for it. I now teach History and Asian
Studies at San Diego State University. I became kind of a Asian specialist
and have spent half my post-Air Force life either traveling or working
or living in Asia. I've studied Chinese and Japanese and am now married
to a lady from Burma. I spent two full years at Karamursel, volunteering
twice to extend for six months. Once I got away from ditty-bopping it wasn't
so bad. After six months I was transferred to the Analysis section, strickly
a day job. Worked with a tech Sgt Crumby. Then after
another six months or so I was notified that I'd have to be going back
to copying code. Couldn't stand the idea and put in a requst to marry
a "foreign national" (turkish girl I was dating). I really had no
intention of marrying, but knew that such a request would lose me my security
clearance, which it did. So my last few months at Mudsite I worked as assistant
to the principal of the base high school.
Returned to Calif for my last year in the AF at George AFB which is now
closed. I worked
with the Air Rescue Service
in a helicopter outfit as their administrative "gofer". Then I started
on my
education and eventually
pulled down a PhD at the University of Arizona. Traveled around,
was married
here and there, and have
been in San Diego for ten years.
That's it in a nut shell
